Yay, thanks *a lot* for this initiative!

I think it’s a great opportunity (esp. the talks) to reach out to people
who probably wouldn’t come physically to the Guix Days because they
don’t consider themselves “part of the group”, so we should advertise it
widely (and be ready to scale accordingly :-)).

The LWN article is a great source.  Note that they had a lot of
resources (hardware) to run BBB.  From what they write, I’m not sure we
could rely on a single shared BBB instance like that of Aquilenet.
